+ ## Our Mission
10
+
11
+ We're making world models accessible to everyone. Through open science and community collaboration, we're building AI models that run locally on your hardware - no cloud required. Our models achieve hundreds of FPS on RTX 5090s and 60 FPS on NVIDIA Jetson for robotics applications.
12
+
13
+ ## Key Technologies
14
+
15
+ ### 🚀 Real-time World Generation
16
+ - **60 FPS** on the latest consumer hardware
17
+ - No cloud computing needed. Run our best models on your current PC or laptop
18
+
19
+ ### ⚡ Model Distillation
20
+ - Production-ready optimization techniques
21
+
22
+ ### 🧪 Human Evaluation Platform
23
+ - [OWL Eval](https://eval.wayfarerlabs.ai) - An open-source evaluation platform for AI-generated videos
24
+ - Reveals critical model failures that automated metrics miss
25
+ - Understand human perception of AI content
26
+
27
+ ## Major Research Projects
28
+
29
+ ### 3D Consistency
30
+ Depth map integration and point cloud conditioning for spatially coherent world generation.
31
+
32
+ ### Long-term Spatiotemporal
33
+ Solving temporal flickering through frame-pair training and optical flow conditioning.
34
+
35
+ ### Novel Architectures
36
+ Diffusion transformers for decoding, hierarchical VAE-GANs, and self-forcing for KV cache optimization.
37
+
38
+ ### Embedded Devices
39
+ Models intended to run anywhere from Steam Deck to iPhone (soon), achieving real-time performance without cloud infrastructure.
